- Flowers over greenLilas brings floral; XXI Art Deco Vanilla Orchid brings green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral, green and sweet run through both.
A starting pointXXI Art Deco Vanilla Orchid first, then Lilas over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
